Biography
Shardza was born in 1859 in Kham.[4] He took ordination at age 30.
He wrote philosophical works and became an influential Bon scholar.[4]
Shardza has been cited as a vegetarian as he refused to eat the meat of any animal that was slaughtered.[5] However, Shardza would eat meat from animals that died naturally from accidents or attacked by wolves as the consumer has no involvement in the death of the animal.[4
